About this game
PLEASE NOTE: The application is currently under maintenance and will resume shortly. Thank you for your patience. This application aims to assess the technical viability of fire training in rural areas and deployment in VR users’ homes. All information provided is game-ified and should NOT be taken for actual safety advice and has not been verified by fire services. In this application you will learn how and when to use four types of fire extinguishers (Dry Powder, Foam, Water and Carbon Dioxide). After learning the correct procedure for safely handling a fire extinguisher, you will be tasked to extinguish a fire hazard that is effective for that extinguisher (Paper, Gas, Electrical and Fuel hazards). Once all four types of extinguishers and hazards have been completed, a fire training simulation will be begin. This simulation will put your skills to the test in a search and rescue operation. During the fire training simulation, you will be tasked with exploring a house during the aftermath of an earthquake. Using the knowledge learned from the training stage, you will be assessed on how effectively you tackle any hazards or dangers discovered during your exploration. Failure to correctly tackle hazards will result in a failed simulation. Once you are satisfied that the search and rescue operation is completed, you can return to the hub area and generate your score. If you have any questions, complaints, or experience issues with this application, please contact Scott Howie (Contact email available in the help-section) for assistance. While playing the game, in-game analytics will be gathered to assess the technical feasibility of the simulation. This data may be used for academic publication. By downloading and agreeing to the in-game consent forms, you will be giving your consent for this data to be anonymously used. If you wish to opt-out of data being submitted, please email Scott Howie prior to 1st of January 2019, after this date, data will be submitted for publication and it will not be possible to remove. Thank you for your time and assistance with this research! Any feedback you have is greatly appreciated. ACHIVAL GAMES: City Exploration Challenge o…
